Ridgid - Ridgid R4120 12-in Chopsaw
Large dust portFluid Cutting Action
Street price: $300
Accuracy of cut: Good
Quality of cut: Fair
The Ridgid has good points but too many negatives. The dust port is among the largest and most effective, the table scales are easy to read, and the zero-clearance throat plate is almost as easy to replace as on the Makita. Also, the trigger has no safety lock, making it easier to use, and the cutting action is fluid, with the fastest and smoothest brake. However, the miter detents are not adjustable, and it was difficult to adjust the fence. Also, there was blade runout. Despite our best attempts to adjust the stops, we could not get the saw to cut accurate, gap-free miters in our miter test.
